Dear Carbonauts,

The countdown is almost over, and the walls blocking the path to an entire new ecosystem are crumbling. In just a few hours, you’ll be free to explore the flora and fauna that inhabit its pristine waters.

We are incredibly excited about opening our doors to the world, and we look forward to providing a platform for the many great projects built on CarbonSwap and the Energy Web Chain to thrive on.

Introducing, Green Sea.

Green Sea is the world’s first energy-centric NFT Marketplace. Sitting right at the intersection of Energy and DeFi, its purpose is creating a unique, one-of-its-kind space, where green, sustainable initiatives can benefit from the open and transparent nature of a decentralized market.

Whether you are an artist, an energy entrepreneur, an innovative company or somebody walking the first steps in the DeFi space, we want to share your work with the rest of the world.

Energy-centric

The opening of Green Sea is a great milestone towards the grand vision of CarbonSwap. We look forward to seeing all kinds of content populating the marketplace, yet we maintain a strong focus towards bringing as many energy-related projects to our ecosystem.

The energy industry is organically embracing NFTs for several use cases: Tokenized Renewable Energy Certificates, Fractionalized CO2 sequestration rights or the Crowdfunding of renewable energy devices are just some examples of the value NFTs can unlock.

We are fully committed to supporting teams and individuals in bringing these projects to life. If your work falls in this category, we’d love to hear from you.

Green NFTs

Minting and publishing an NFT on the Green Sea is nearly cost-free and extremely energy efficient. Using the Energy Web Chain as our core infrastructure allows users to mint, buy and trade NFTs, all while generating a negligible carbon footprint. Hence, the birth of the term Green NFT: a new generation of non-fungible tokens, living and thriving on sustainable infrastructures.

Beta Launch

Green Sea is almost here, but this is not even its final form! In the following weeks and months, we are planning to deploy several features that will create the flawless user experience we are aiming for, making it much easier for creators to mint and publish their collections. The Beta launch of Green Sea comes equipped with the following functionalities:

  • 100% on-chain trustless marketplace and order book
  • Buy and Sell Fungible or Non-Fungible tokens
  • Support for ERC-20, ERC-721 & ERC-1155
  • Royalty fees available to creators: collect a fee every time your creation is traded
  • Customizable orders: specify your desired buyer, set an expiration date, enable partial order fills and more.

During the first run of Beta testing, all tokens/collections will be manually added by the CarbonSwap team. Once we verify everything is performing as intended we’ll fully open the gates of the marketplace. Until then, if you wish to publish your collection get in touch via team@carbonswap.finance.

Post Beta

After successfully closing the Beta, we’ll focus on deploying the following features:

  • Open developer tools contract and Subgraph information: create your own storefront while using Green Sea as the engine.
  • Launch pad for minting NFTs: mint your own collection directly into the featured Green Sea Community Collection, retaining ownership over it.
  • Unbound NFT listing and browsing functionalities.
  • NFT Sections: publish your collection where it truly belongs.
  • Featured creators and collections
  • Token auctions

First visitors

The discovery of new territory is always spearheaded by crazy pioneers that dare entering the uncharted before anybody else. Green Sea is not an exception to that. In a separate post we’ll be soon showcasing the adventurers that bravely decided to set sail on the Green Sea the very day it opens its doors.

Sincerely,

The Soots
